Good apt. However not enough clean towels. Hot water short tank. Two showers then others had to wait for it to heat up delayed out morning start. Maybe point this out. There was a lot or noise outside with drunk teenagers, motorcycles reviving in and cars in the rear car park and front square from 1-3am. So quite noisy. Maybe alert police to local drunken youths. Not in keeping with Dornoch. Probably better options in summer no local eateries open.

Owner's Response:

Dear Janet, Thank you for posting your review about Bird’s Eye View. Since yours is our first negative review, we would like to take the time to address each of your points in turn. Towels: in keeping with standard practice in short-term rental accommodation, each guest is provided with 1 bath towel, 1 hand towel and 1 face cloth. There are heated towel rails in each bathroom, and there is also a washer/dryer should you wish to launder the towels yourselves. Guests staying for longer than a week are offered a complete changeover of bed linen and towels. Hot Water: We have had groups of 4 guests staying previously, and yours is the first comment on a shortage of hot water. However, there is only a finite amount of hot water in the tank and we obviously have no control over how much water our guests will use. There are instructions in the Welcome folder on how to boost the water if necessary. Noise: we are sorry that you experienced noise at night. This is, as you say, out of keeping with the quiet town of Dornoch. As it is the first time this has been brought to our attention we assume it is an isolated incident and, once again, are sorry it happened during your stay. Eateries: We are aware of one restaurant that closes during the winter months, and another that only opens during the day. However, as far as we know the other restaurants and cafes are open, so we are surprised that you say none were (all restaurants in Tain, which relies less on tourism and is just a 15-minute drive/taxi ride from Dornoch, are open throughout the year). Finally, we ask all guests to contact us during their stay if they have any real issues at the apartment that we can help them with. Having not heard from you, and from reading the nice comments you left in our Guest Book, we had assumed that all had been fine. So we are extremely disappointed to hear that that was not in fact the case, and once again are sorry that your stay was not all that you had hoped for.

Highly Recommended

We couldn't have asked for a better appointed property in a more excellent location for exploring NE Scotland if we tried. Everything in the apartment was at hand &, likewise, everywhere that we wanted to explore was easily accessible.

We enjoyed our stay at " Birds Eye View " as it is a modern apartment in a central location in Dornoch. A good time to visit Northern Scotland, as it's early in the season, and the roads are fairly quiet for touring, and sightseeing. Lots to do and the weather was dry but cold, good for walking.

We really enjoyed our short break in the centre of Dornoch. The apartment is in an excellent location, with views over the pretty town centre/cathedral and just a few minutes’ walk from the golf course and beach. It is very well-equipped, spotlessly clean and newly decorated. The beds have new linen and duvets – we slept very well. It was a bonus to have a powerful en-suite shower. We will definitely be back and would thoroughly recommend.
